Jacqueline Jossa and Dan Osborne celebrate daughter Ella’s sixth birthday with unicorn cake

Jacqueline Jossa and Dan Osborne celebrated their eldest daughter Ella’s sixth birthday on Monday, with a no-expenses spared sleepover party.

The former EastEnders actress, 28, and her husband, 29, pulled out all the stops for the special occasion, throwing a unicorn and rainbow themed party, complete with an impressive three-tier birthday cake. 

Little Ella was treated to a huge pile of presents in the morning and ended the fun-filled day with a sleepover with her siblings in tents.

Jacqueline took to her Instagram Stories to share photos and videos of Ella’s incredible lockdown party. 

The party included personalised signs, rainbow and unicorn balloons and an epic balloon stand in the shape of the number six in the family living room.

The children spent the day playing with a gymnastics bar – that was one of Ella’s presents – followed by a game of dress-up and finished the evening with a sleepover in individual tents. 

Jacqueline, who is also mum to Mia, two, shared a sweet message to Ella on her Instagram.

The I’m a Celebrity winner described Ella as a ‘dream daughter’ and asked her to ‘slow down’ as she was growing up too fast. 

She wrote: ‘Happy 6th birthday to my BEST FRIEND in the world. 

‘I am so proud of you. I love you with all of my heart. Please slow down. 

‘I found it crazy to believe you are now a 6 year old little girl, who doesn’t need me to hold her bottle, or Rock her to sleep. 

‘My darling girl you’ve got so big. Slow down angel.

‘No words can describe the joy abs [sic] purpose you have given me 6 years ago today and forever. You are a dream daughter I couldn’t ask for anything more.’  

Dan – who also has son Teddy, seven, from a previous relationship – marked the occasion with adorable videos of the children enjoying the party. 

On Sunday, Jacqueline and Dan shared some loved-up snaps as they celebrated Valentine’s Day together.

The married couple who share two daughters, also took to Instagram to reveal that she had made him breakfast in bed and he’d built her Lego flowers. 

Dan kept things sweet with his gushing tribute to Jacqueline posting a single image of them putting on a cosy display in matching white shorts and blue tops. 

While mum-of-two Jacqueline shared several images alongside her beau, including holiday snaps and a selfie of the duo relaxing on a previous trip to Dubai. 

She also took to Instagram Stories to give fans another glimpse into their Valentine’s Day celebrations and revealed Dan had gifted her some stunning red roses.

As she showed them off to the camera, a sweet handwritten note reading ‘Happy Valentine’s my beautiful wife’ could be seen. 

Jacqueline also treated her beau to breakfast in bed on Sunday, serving him up two bagels on a patterned plate. 

Making sure she was also treated, Dan built the beauty a colourful bouquet of Lego flowers complete with green brick leaves and a glass vase.

The couple’s Valentine’s celebrations come after Jacqueline recently revealed she went to a therapist during lockdown in 2020, amid her marital woes with Dan.  

‘It felt like everybody wanted to watch me fall apart,’ she told The Sun. ‘I kept it in for a while, but then over lockdown it was a really good time and place for Daniel and I to go through everything — an opportunity for us to talk through it all. 

‘For me, this meant turning to therapy. And because of that, I couldn’t be in the same house as Dan. There was no big argument or bust-up, and there were no other girls. Moving out was literally how I had to deal with it.’ 

Claiming she needed ‘space’ from her husband, she went on: ‘It really, really helped, especially in terms of communication, teaching us how to talk to one another better. 

‘Therapy is a really good thing, whether for yourself or for a couple. I don’t understand why it’s still frowned upon.’  

Dan blamed the pressures of lockdown on the situation, adding that entertaining their daughters Ella and Mia plus not being allowed their usual freedoms became too much and that they just needed ‘time apart’.  

However, he insisted they had worked through their problems and were looking forward to having a ‘clean, fresh start together’. 

He also said he’d like for them to renew their wedding vows as Dan admits that looking back on his wedding day amid the sea of negativity has ‘tarnished it’. 

The couple have had their share of ups and downs with allegations of cheating on Dan’s part since they married in 2017. 

The former TOWIE hunk later admitted he had been unfaithful to Jacqueline and that she had forgiven him for his past indiscretions.

Jacqueline also addressed the women who have sold stories about her husband’s alleged infidelities.

‘Listen, you can’t stop the b*****s selling stories — that is fact, I know that. They can say what they want, Daniel and I know the truth,’ she hit back.
